The TIMKEN TSF series tapered roller bearing cup is the removable outer race of a tapered bearing. It is press-fitted into the housing and, together with the cone, forms an assembly that supports combined radial and axial loads. It is used in equipment where power must be transmitted with shafts running at moderate speed and with controlled misalignment, such as gearboxes, pumps, agricultural machinery and conveyors. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and quotes it by WhatsApp with the part number you need.

The designation of this cup combines a basic number with the suffix -BA. In the example 553-BA, the number identifies the dimension series and the suffix -BA corresponds to a construction variant within the TSF family. The TSF series is recognized by that type of nomenclature and by the letters that accompany the number. To choose the correct cup, send us the complete part number shown on the bearing or on the equipment drawing.

TIMKEN tapered roller cups are used in industries in Argentina such as food processing, cement, mining and agriculture. They are found in gear reducers, conveyor belts, mills, mixers, presses and material handling equipment. They also appear in the automotive and railway sectors, where the combination of radial and axial loads demands a robust bearing that is easy to maintain.

To select the cup, take into account the outer diameter, the width and the raceway angle, which must match the corresponding cone. Mounting is done with a press or with controlled impact tools, never by striking the raceway directly. Proper lubrication and sealing prevent contamination and extend service life. Alignment between the cone and the cup is critical: excessive misalignment generates point loads and premature failures.

Tapered roller cups are interchangeable between brands if the standardized dimensions and the raceway angle match. TIMKEN is a global benchmark, and on the Argentine market there are alternatives from other manufacturers with equivalent dimensions. To replace a cup, compare the complete part number and the main dimensions; if in doubt, ask us and we will indicate the compatible alternative.
